Costa Coffee is a UK-based coffee shop chain<\/strong> created by the Costa brothers, Sergio and Bruno, back in 1971. They originally sold their coffee to local caterers and delicatessens in London. Obviously, word got out and they soon opened their first shop, then another, and another. Fast forward to today, Costa is now one of the largest coffee shop chains in the UK; it was even voted the nation’s favorite coffee shop for three consecutive years now. Despite the scale it has reached. Costa has never stopped growing and expanding locally and internationally.<\/p>\n

It is the 2nd largest coffeehouse chain in the world next to Starbucks, and the biggest in the UK.<\/strong><\/p>\n
